In the upcoming HBO TV movie, "The Special Relationship," actor Dennis Quaid will be portraying President Bill Clinton, but the actor has no idea why the producers chose him for the role, reports
ChannelGuideMag.com.

The actor feared that he would be a disaster in the part, but that motivated him to do it. "I have this philosophy that I follow sometimes that the thing you’re most afraid to do you should do. I was really afraid I would suck. That was really the fear, fear of sucking," he said.

The docudrama tells the story of President Clinton’s relationship with Tony Blair, when he was the newly elected British Prime Minister. As he did in the film "The Queen," Michael Sheen is playing Blair. "The Special Relationship" premieres on HBO May 29.
